The weekend gave Mariah a break from her hectic American Idol schedule after she and her fellow judges, Keith Urban, Randy Jackson, and Nicki Minaj, auditioned singers in Charlotte, NC, and Baton Rouge, LA, last week. During the shoot in Charlotte, an argument between Mariah and Nicki was captured on camera, and following the spat, Mariah told Barbara Walters she was amping up her security team due to a threat of violence from Nicki. Despite the fued, producers have said the show is going full steam ahead and released a statement saying that they "couldn't imagine a better group" of judges for the competition.
